to Cry Wolf! We are an 18+ AU, intermediate to advanced Mercy Thompson/Alpha and Omega RP set in present day, in the Tri-Cities of Washington. We are a premium board with a 250 wordcount. Please make sure that you register with your characters name in Proper Case. Not in all caps. Example: Mercy Thompson. We welcome you to the site and if you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out to the staff.

No knowledge of the books is required. All the information needed is available on site. We ask that you read over the species information before rolling one of that type, as there are a few key differences between Mercyverse creatures and the ones you might know.

We put emphasis on the slice-of-life RP with the occasional event to throw things off. ;)

Skin made by Tana @ Cosmo, Shine, and ATF. Graphics, custom stats, forum, profile structure, mini profiles and coding tweaks thanks to Ara. Templates thanks to Becky of Candyland. All apps, threads, fae lore, and plots belong to their respective members of Cry Wolf. Most importantly the Mercy Thompson Universe is thanks to Patricia Briggs for creating such an interesting world for us to enjoy.

This is where we will list any limitations currently in place and their reasoning. Sometimes limitations are needed and others are canon.

WerewolvesCanon
Female wolves are rare as women tend to not survive the change as well as men do. Female wolves are in a 1:2 ratio. One female wolf for every two male wolves. Each player may only have 1 female wolf. When the limit is reached we will open up sign ups that are based on a combination of activity and time spent on site - A member that has been around for 3 months will get priority over a member that has been around for a week. See This thread for more information.

Site
Werewolves should be 400 years old, or less.

WalkersCanon
Walkers live to the same average lifespan of a human (~70 years.).

Group B: Only 1 per player. An individual may hold a Group A and a Group B ranking, but not within the same pack or seethe.

Group C characters are unique at creation. Only 1 per player. This does not prevent the character from holding another rank. These characters may not be your first character. (You must be a member with an approved character for ~3 weeks before you can apply for a class C character.)

For more information about ranks and requirements to obtain/keep one please see this thread.

Exceptions to some limitations may be granted as awards for contests or site events. These will be announced in advance. The rewards available may also provide another way to obtain limited creations.

Hybrids - No half vampire/werewolves. An individual can be half fae/human, however. They cannot have half the powers of two species. Things just don't work that way. No half walker, half witch, etc. You either are, or you are not.

Wolf walkers - Werewolves or nothin'!

Horse walkers

Jaguar walkers - Or lions. North American animals or nothing.

Thunderbird walkers

Insect, aquatic walkers - This includes fish, dolphins, whales, etc.

Multiple Personalities - Schizophrenia, or anything similar.

Real World People - No Jesse James or Jack the Rippers.

Raised by animals - No character, regardless of species, may have been raised by animals.

Playing an animal - We are not an animal RP site. Though our characters may take animal forms, they are not animals.
